Solution:
Given equation of hyperbola is = 36 i.e., = 1 ⇒ = 1 , which is of the form = 1. The foci and vertices of the hyperbola lie on y-axis. Now, = 4 ⇒ a = 2 and = 9 ⇒ b = 3 Also, = = 4 + 9 = 13 ⇒ c = ∴ Coordinates of foci are (0, ± c) i.e. (0, ± ) ∴ Coordinates of vertices are (0, ±a) i.e. (0, ±2) Eccentricity (e) = = Length of latus rectum = = = 9.
